BTS’s Live Vocals During Shocking “Spring Day” Stage Trigger Scathing Reactions
Korean forums quickly filled with harsh discussions about the group’s live performance standards, with one post receiving over 100,000 views and hundreds of comments criticizing their vocals. Some claimed the performance exposed how reliant the members have become on backing tracks, while others singled out individual members for forgetting lyrics and appearing uncomfortable on stage.
- “(Predicting the comments): ‘They suddenly got on stage after the concert with no preparation, the in-ears weren’t working, and the fans still had fun’ — just watch, these kinds of excuses will start flooding in.”
- “Was that really their actual live vocals? LOL, they were terrible, seriously.”
- “All three of them were bad, but ARMY ahjummas keep pretending their fave was better than the others. Stop overhyping them. Every community is roasting all three right now. LOL.”
- “Watching V forget the lyrics was secondhand embarrassment to the max.”
- “The way he looked hesitant and like he didn’t even want to sing, what was that?”
A few commenters attempted to defend them, arguing that the performance was clearly spontaneous and that technical issues, such as faulty in-ear monitors, may have affected their delivery. Still, the criticism has been overwhelming, sparking outrage and turning the situation into a scandal.
- “You do know they went up there completely unprepared and without in-ear monitors, right? Everything else went perfectly, but people swarm in like vultures the moment there’s one small mistake, it’s disgusting.”
- “Jin should just stick to trot music, LOL. Jungkook’s the only one who actually sounds like a singer.”
- “V really needs to spend less time hanging around and more time practicing.”
- “They were so bad, I’m actually shocked LOL wow.”
- “Instead of acting like celebrities all the time, they seriously need to take some vocal lessons.”
